CHAPTER 428: CHAPTER 340: THE ERA HAS TURNED

The Lord of Blasphemy once ruled the ancient land with the great power of ’Fate,’ his brilliance radiating to the edges of the universe. Even the gods of the pillars avoided his sharp edge, marking the rise of an era belonging solely to the ’Blasphemous Wizards.’

Later, the ’Day of Fallen’ arrived. The ’Lord of Blasphemy’ perished, and Fate was utterly erased from the ancient land.

This is a Hidden truth already known to many deities,

but now, the once-lost Fate shines on an unremarkable little planet somewhere in the universe, creating massive ripples. It intersected with the sealed symbol of ’Fate’ in the Star Realm, sparking a world-shaking transformation that naturally caught the attention of all the gods.

No deity does not ’yearn’ for Fate,

just as no deity could resist the temptation to become the ’Lord of Blasphemy,’ such a lofty being among the pillars.

Therefore,

at this moment, countless gods from the ancient land, including even the ’Cosmic Pillars,’ turned their gaze toward this small planet. According to the descriptions of the Angel God serving ’Calamity,’ if not for the immense ripples caused by Fate converging with the Star Realm, forming a natural barrier around this planet, many High Position gods might have already descended to join the pursuit of ’Fate.’

"’Fate’ is within me. If this is exposed, I will become the target of all the gods." Yang Qizhou saw through the crux of the issue, a sense of urgency unconsciously arising in his heart.

Fortunately, he was secretly manipulating the ’Iron Blood God’ to meet this Angel God serving ’Calamity’; otherwise, the ripples in the realm of the mind alone might have revealed the problem to the deity.

"Huh..."

At that moment, the host of the ’Chaos Angel,’ a long-haired woman suspended midair by six blood vessels, who had been enthusiastic about a proposed alliance and speaking endlessly, suddenly froze. She murmured in a daze as if lost in thought: "Strange, why do I feel like allying with you? Clearly, we’ve never met before."

Suddenly, her eyes widened, her face twisting into a sinister expression. With a voice terrifying enough to kill hundreds, she shouted, "You have implanted suggestions into my mind! This—this isn’t the work of a ’magical artifact!’ Base and lowly ’Star Spirit,’ how could you possibly wield such power?"

So certain that it wasn’t the effect of a ’magical artifact,’ it became clear she possessed the ability to probe and resist the power of such artifacts.

Yang Qizhou appeared thoughtful and a faint smile crossed his face,

"Of course gods cannot wield such power. But I am not a god."

At this moment, the long-haired woman’s head, acting as the ’Chaos Angel’s’ host and suspended in midair, realized there was something unsettling about this weak ’Star Spirit.’ She felt a cold dread and immediately utilized the authority derived from the ’symbol’ she embodied.

The blood sea strewn with corpses suddenly swirled, rising like waves. One after another, sinister and calamity-laden runes, drawn in blood, appeared, glowing with an eerie light. Within the incomprehensible unseen realm, anthropomorphic malevolent curses converged upon the ’Iron Blood God,’ whose body radiated crimson streams of light. Some sought to devour, others to harm—all brimming with malice.

This power was terrifying, a manifestation of Chaos rooted in the ’Calamity’ symbol.

If the ’Iron Blood God’ were an ordinary Star Spirit God, he might indeed have met an agonizing end in endless Pain, his flesh fusing with his surroundings and causing catastrophic contamination to the planet.

But alas,

Far away at Sky Mountain Garden No. 10, Yang Qizhou let out a faint, disdainful laugh. Having spent enough time with the ’Chaos Angel,’ he decided not to waste any more and unleashed the power of the ’King of Nature’ directly.

In the Deceit Prison,

tiny saplings began sprouting from the blood-drenched sinister runes, taking root and growing. This originally dark and horrifying space now emitted a paradoxical warmth. The Erosion progressed more intensely over time, appearing to pollute even the host of the ’Chaos Angel.’

"What—what is this monstrosity? Clearly just ’Star Spirit’ level power—why is it so hard to purge?" Swirling with the Chaos aura, her voice resounded with maddening screams that could shatter flesh and blood. The Chaos Angel’s host, the long-haired woman’s head, desperately tried to cleanse the natural pollution but found it impossible to do so. Moreover, as the natural aura continued its Erosion, she grew increasingly terrified.

Indeed,

this ability was none other than ’Natural Baptism.’

This was an inspiration Yang Qizhou had gained after experimenting on ’Mr. Death.’ Since ’Natural Baptism’ could cleanse other powers from a target and transform them into pure ’Natural Life,’ it could, of course, be used against ’enemies.’ Once the opponent underwent the baptism and became ’Natural Life,’ they would naturally fall under the dominion of the ’King of Nature.’

’Natural Baptism’ bore the characteristic of a Cosmic Pillar, so tackling an Angel God’s host posed no real challenge. Even so, out of caution and to expedite matters, Yang Qizhou also employed the power of the ’Spiritual Dragon’ to weaken the host’s resistance on the mental plane.

"You intend to pollute this host and thereby gain dominion over my ’true body.’ That will never happen... I will ensure that billions of lives on this continent perish alongside me!" With an outraged roar, the ’Iron Blood God’s’ vision was filled with a blazing red light.
